Although I trust that this new policy is well intended and simply wishes to protect many of the generous donors who post here, I must stand with those like Georgess to register my concerns for the unintended consequences of this new policy. For by scrutinizing all of the new posting in order to prevent TOS violations, the mods are treating all posters (and not just the ones committing illegal actions) as if they were criminals. While I have no problem with a delay in new postings, I have become concerned with the new slate of "protective" measures which have been introduced in many new venues (and not just R'osity.) While individually they may appear unimportant or even benign, ultimately, their collective effect will be to erode the freedoms of all members (and not merely those who are in error.) Moreover, this particular addition, I think, is unnecessary as the previous of removing offending posts worked sufficiently to resist TOS violations without putting the whole community under surveillance. If individuals see a TOS violation, they should report it. Simple. Why is it ok to curb the privileges of all to catch a very few? This policy , I feel, is inefficient at best and dangerous to the freedom and creativity of the whole community at worst. For while I am not a great modeler, I do so a little. As such, I would love to post freebie to repay what has been generously accorded to me. However, as the difficulties of doing so mount, I would be very much less likely to contribute. Stimulating this reluctance, I'm sure, is not the intention of this policy. But, unfortunately, as R'osity imposes unnecessary restrictions on the many in order to protect the few (even if such protections seem warranted,) many initially hesitant contributors like myself may refuse to engage in the hassle. So I request in a spirit of kindness and group cohesion that R'osity rethink this unfortunate policy. It will help few, but harm many. Thanks for listening. --lb
